63401, Turbo/engine buildup
Posted by Heff, Jan-11-04 06:02 PM
Hey guys, I have a question, I have a 98 eclipse GS, and need more power(surprise) Is their any way to build an engine to get immediate performance, but also be able to handle mild boost down the road if I want to go turbo ? I know it's a matter of compression, so any ideas would be appreciated.

Tons of info on this site. Use the "SEARCH" it works .

if you might want turbo eventually, why not just do it all in one shot? you need different compression for turbo and n/a so might as well do it right the first time.

The reason that I don't do it all at once is that I don't want to dump $7000 into this car all at once. I'm not sure how long I am going to keep this car so I like to do things gradually, because when I do sell the car I know I'm going to lose whatever money I have put into it. But ideally that would be the way to go.
